Eli was never meant to matter. While humanity fought a losing war against a hyperintelligent race obsessed with ascension, Eli lived a quiet life far from the front lines, repairing broken bodies and sending others back into battle. He didn’t save worlds. He didn’t make decisions that shaped the universe. Then the universe ended and Eli didn’t. Cast adrift in the aftermath of a cosmic annihilation, Eli becomes the first living anomaly in a newly forming universe. His arrival sends ripples through reality itself, accelerating evolution, awakening dormant worlds, and introducing a force that had never existed before: energy that can be gained, refined, and ascended. As Eli struggles to survive in a hostile, rapidly changing world, he begins to understand that his existence has altered the laws of reality. When he reaches his first ascension, he is granted something thought impossible Drawing on fragments of a forgotten life and a half-remembered game, Eli makes a simple choice: to quantify the unquantifiable. This would have dire affects on this whole new universe forever...
